RYAN GARCIA will be hoping he can win a world title at his second attempt as he faces Devin Haney in a huge clash next month.
The two fighters have been on a collision course to fight for years as professionals, having clashed six times as amateurs.

Garcia and Haney won three fights each when they were teenagers, but now the stakes are much higher.
Haney is the WBC super-lightweight champion, winning the belt from Regis Prograis in dominant fashion back in December.
Garcia has yet to win a world title, and was stopped for the first time in his career last year against Gervonta Davis.
The 25-year-old has displayed some erratic behaviour in the build-up to his fight with Haney, with some fans saying the event should be called off.
But it looks set to go ahead, and it should be a thriller of a contest.
When is Haney vs Garcia?
Haney’s clash with Garcia will take place on Saturday, April 20.
Expect ring-walks for the event to get underway in the early hours of the morning, approximately 5am, on Sunday, April 21.
The fight will be held at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York.

What has been said?
Garcia has said: “To me, it is personal in a way,” Garcia said,
“I don’t know, something’s just in me and just … I don’t even feel like answering these questions bro, I’m sorry.
“I don’t give a f* about his boxing skills. “I will beat his a, that’s it!
“I’m not a boxing analyst. Forget that dude! He’s gonna get it, 4/20, that’s it!”
Haney has said: “Styles make fights. I feel like I’m levels above him. I feel like he hasn’t fought on that elite level, but when he did, he quit.
“Whether he want to admit it or not, the world watched him take a knee, the world watched him Colin Kaepernick. So at the end of the day, what has he really done on the elite level?”
